Sabaayad - Somali Flat Bread

For the first day of this fourth week's long marathon, am posting Sabaayad from Somali which sounds almost like Indian flatbread, yes am kick starting my first day with a flaky flat bread which Somalians enjoy for their breakfast.Sabaayad ressembles quite like our Indian flatbreads which is eaten in Somali for breakfast, lunch,dinner or just like as snacks. Usually this flat breads are served for breakfast with meat dishes or fried eggs along with a cup of tea, while for lunch you can serve this breads very well with different curries, however i like mine with jam.

I picked this Sabaayad from Somali Kitchen, and the owner of this site says that she loves to have this flaky flat bread with honey for her breakfast, obviously you have so many choice to enjoy this bread. I used both all purpose flour and wheat flour for making this flatbread. You can make flaky sabaayad with both flours also shaping sabaayad goes for easy shapes like square or round, i prepared mine as square shaped flat breads.While rolling this site's owner advised to use ghee or oil, these makes this flat bread flaky and she wasnt wrong, mine came out simply fabulous and we loved this Somali flatbread simply with jam and honey for our breakfast, definitely a filling breakfast.

Preparation is just like our Indian breads! I am yet cook 2-3 breakfasts & I might just make this for one of the days 😀😍😀. I use to like my parathas with both jam & honey when I was growing up. Now I prefer a curry.
